5 Happy Reasons to Use Psychometrics

Here’s 5 happy reasons to use Psychometric Assessment as part of your next recruitment process!

1. Happy Candidates

The recruitment process has greater transparency, fairness and it is easier to see the parallels between the assessment chosen and the potential role.

Candidates may get a preview of the tasks they would be required to complete as part of their role.

2. Happy Hiring Managers

Ability to observe and measure candidates completing tasks and using skills absolutely necessary for a role, even if the skills are practical or technical (e.g. fine motor skills or hand-eye co-ordination for a Lab Technician, Manufacturing Operator or Assembly role).

Time spent in repeat interview processes can be spent on other priority projects.

3. Happy HR Managers

Opportunity to measure ability in areas identified as key to success in the role, matching assessments to key competencies.

Ensures standardisation of the recruitment process.

4. Happy Environment

Preferred work style and cultural fit can be explored using Personality, Motivation or Interest Inventories.

5. The Science Bit

Proven Reliability and Validity – Tests are measuring the ability or area that they say they are going to measure and are proven to be the same across test groups.
